Resting in peace

What is it with people and the common cold? Or any common ailments for that matter?
The moment you start sniffling or clearing your throat a little more than usual, instantly everyone seem to turn into Dr Quack and fawn over you. Don't do this, don't eat that...etc etc. Then there's always the question of "Why aren't you taking medication?" or "Why didn't you see the doctor?".

Heck, i'll see the doctor IF he's cute and available. In fact, i'll take medication any day of the week if it means he'll be giving me personal consultation. HAHAHA!!! But that's besides the point.

Honestly, before anyone thinks i have no respect for doctors, i do. I conferred with someone (who's qualified in the medical line, mind you) about taking medication for flu. The answer... when you have flu:
If you take medication, it'll take you 7 days to recover.
If you let nature run its course, it'll take you 1 week to recover.

Durr... 8)

Someone even asked me this "Why are you slumped in front of the TV? Aren't you supposed to be sick?". To which i replied "I'm just sick, not DEAD".

Ok... so maybe that wasn't too nice of me. I appreciate all the concern but really, all i need is plenty of fluids and my rest...undisturbed. :P
